Dr. Marnie Rose, who the run is named after, was just 27 and in the first year of her pediatric medical residency at Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital when she was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer. Marnie died in August of 2002, a year after being diagnosed, from complications of her cancer. Several Mary Queen staff members, as well as parishioners, have lost family members/friends to this disease.
